MILWAUKEE -- On a day when they should have been talking about their daughter's first cheerleading practice, 10-year-old Alicia Clark's parents instead were planning Friday for a funeral for the girl, who was killed by six Rottweilers. Alicia, a Girl Scout and fourth-grade athlete, died Thursday night when she was attacked by the dogs while visiting a friend's home in Elroy, Wis., authorities said Friday. Alicia and a 10-year-old friend who lived at the home were alone at the time of the attack.
